Confluence of Minds: The Rabindranath Tagore and Patrick Geddes Reader on Education and Environment

Abstract

This collection of seminal correspondences between Indian Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore and Scottish polymath Robert Geddes are testimony to a great friendship and an even greater marriage between Eastern and Western schools of thought. This compilation uncovers a confluence of ideas on the environment, science, rural reconstruction and a holistic approach to education that resonates with the lived experiences of its students.
